The purpose of this study is to test the effect of smart-phone addiction on school adjustment. In detail, this study focus on mediating effect of psychological distress. For this purpose, Data Collected on 375 students at 4 high schools in the capital area were used in the analysis. Correlation analysis was conducted to find out the relationship between smart-phone addiction, school adjustment, psychological distress. To find out if smart-phone addiction and school adjustment are mediated by the relationship between psychological distress, the model was tested using a structural equation. The results of the study were as follows: The smart-phone addiction is found to have an adverse effect on high school students' school adaptation and a positive effect on psychological distress.

In this study, PASW Statistics ver. 18.0 was used to analyze the correlation between chewing difficulty and osteoarthritis in the population of 8,498 persons aged 50 years and older who had completed the health related questionnaire in the fifth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2010~2012. The following conclusion was drawn: The distribution of the chewing difficulty status showed that 38.8% of the respondents had chewing difficulty and that there was no significant difference by gender. Older respondents tended to have significantly greater chewing difficulty 34.3% of the respondents aged from 50 to 64 years and 46.4% of those aged 65 years and older, those who had lower levels of education and income, who were smokers, and who had higher levels of depression and stress suffered from significantly greater chewing difficulty. Chewing difficulty and osteoarthritis were correlated with each other: the respondents having chewing difficulty had 1.44 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23~1.70) higher prevalence of osteoarthritis than those with no such difficulty. In addition, such correlation was not found in males: the former had 1.36 (95% CI, 0.98~1.88) higher prevalence of osteoarthritis than the latter, which was not statistically significant. Such correlation was found in females: the former had 1.47 (95% CI, 1.22~1.76) higher prevalence of osteoarthritis than the latter, which was statistically significant. Therefore, the chewing difficulty status affected osteoarthritis for females aged 50 years and older. Therefore, the efforts to solve oral health problems through oral hygiene would help prevent osteoarthritis from worsening and manage the condition.

본 연구는 MRI 검사를 받은 환자를 대상으로 영상매체(Visual equipment & Audio system)를 이용하여 영상물을 제공함으로서 불안과 불편감에 대한 효과에 대해 규명함으로써 MRI 검사로 인한 심리적, 정신적 불안과 불편 감을 감소시킬 수 있는 대체요법을 제공하기 위하여 본 연구를 시도하였다. 연구대상은 대전광역시에 위치한 K 대학병원에서 MRI 검사를 받은 환자 중 영상물을 제공받은 실험군 30명과 영상물을 제공받지 않은 대조군 30명을 대상하였다. 연구의 도구는 Spielberger의 기질불안 도구와 Cline, Herman, Shaw와 Morton이 고안한 불안점수 도구인 시각적 상사척도(VAS)를 이용하였고, 영상물을 제공하여 두 군 간의 활력징후를 측정하였고 불편감은 대상자의 주관적 불편감(어지러움, 공포감. 긴장감)점수와 객관적 불편감 행동 점수를 사용하였다. 자료 분석 방법은 SPSS12K for Windows program을 이용하였으며, 두 군의 일반적 특성 및 수술에 관련된 특성의 동질성 검증은 $\chi^2$ 검정, 가설검증은 t-test로 분석하였다. 연구결과를 요약해 보면 영상매체(Visual equipment & Audio system)를 이용하여 영상물(영화, 애니메이션)을 제공하면서 MRI 검사를 진행했을 경우 검사 대상자의 혈압 및 객관적 불편감에서는 유의한 영향을 미치지 못했으나 불안과 활력징후의 하나인 맥박의 감소, 또한 주관적 불편감이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 환자의 심리적인 긴장감을 완화시키며 안정감을 느끼게 하는데 효과적인 대체요법이 될 수 있을 것으로 사료 된다.

운전자가 고속도로와 시내도로에서 3시간 동안 주행했을 때 주관적인 운전 피로감 및 졸림감, 신체적인 불편도를 주관적 평가지를 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험결과 운전 피로감은 모든 주행조건에서 운전시간이 경과됨에 따라 유의하게 증가하였고 졸림감은 고속도로 주행시 운전시간에 따라 유의하게 증가하였으며 시내 주행에서 고속도로 주행보다 더 많은 신체부위에서 불편도가 높았다. 따라서 운전 피로는 운전시간에 따라 증가하고 고속도로에서는 졸음, 시내주행에서는 신체적인 불편으로 인한 피로가 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

This study conducted frequency analysis for male and female patients aged 60 and over from the results of analyzing improvement strategies for inconvenience due to wearing alopecia wigs. When the patoent started perceive their depilatory diseases was right after treatment of anticancer drugs or radiotherapy, and they were found to suffer from inconveniences of being dried, etc. After treatment of chemotherapy, as for the falling-out parts, eyebrows were found to be the highest 52.1%, and pubic hair 38%, axilla hair 29% in that order. And the inconvenience level of wearing wigs among the patients with the different background of education indicates that the professions of the patients affect the ease of use. It is presumed that the easiness in use which the college graduates, high school graduates, and postgraduates showed is attributable to the age difference. to improve the inconveniences from cancer patients wearing wigs, scape troubles and close adhesion are constantly needed.

The present study investigated whether convergence training in which has an effect on reducing visual discomfort in viewing 3D TV. The stereoscopic depth of 3D training stimulus was gradually increased while maintaining individual visual discomfort at a minimum value. Participants were randomly assigned into one of three groups: a control group and two training groups. For both training groups, all procedure and the disparity range of training stimuli were the same except the order of the disparities of training stimuli. One of the two different training procedure was provided: gradual change or random change of the disparities of training stimulus. Training itself was very effective so that convergence fusional range was improved after three sessions of training with intervals of two weeks. In order to evaluate the effect of convergence training on visual discomfort, the subjective visual discomfort in 3D TV viewing was measured before and after training sessions using questionnaire. The results showed that a significant reduction in visual discomfort was found after training only in the group of gradual change. These results demonstrated a repeated convergence training might be helpful in reducing the visual discomfort in 3D TV environment.

The purpose of the study was to validate the Korean version of the Heterophobia Scale for Gay Male (HGM). Heterophobia refers to the rejection, fear, and avoidance that sexual minorities feel against of heterosexuals. The three subscales of HGM assesses the unease/avoidance, disconnectedness, and expected rejection fromwith heterosexual male. To validate the Korean HGM, item translation, item analysis, and exploratory factor analysis were conducted. From the Using exploratory factor analysis of the Korean version of the HGM(N=213), per 13 items, a 3-factor model consisting of 13 items wereas determined. The Cconfirmatory factor analysis supported the goodness of fit of the 3-factor structure of the K-HGM (N=153) and showed adequate model fit, K-HGM showed adequate the internal consistency, convergent validity, discriminant validity and Criterion validity was good with other related scales (K-SOMS, K-MISS-G, SDS-9, and RS). In conclusion, the K-HGM is a valid measure of heterophobia for gay male within the Korean population. Based on the findings, implications, practical use, limitations, and suggestions for future study are discussed.

To get the evidences for decreasing the discomfort, dissatisfaction, and for improving management of the implant prothesis through assessment implant patients' awareness and discomforts about care of the prostheses. The subjects were 300 implant patients who treated in the 20 dental clinics in Pusan, Ulsan and Daegu. The general characteristics, recognition, maintenance, discomfort and dissatisfaction, and oral hygiene status were collected. Level of the discomfort and dissatisfaction was measured by a 5 Likert scale, and analyzed by the equivalent of 100. The life-span of the implants was overestimated, however, periodic recall check and scaling were underwent. The level of discomfort and dissatisfaction was generally good, but many of them (65.3%) complained the food impaction. As a result of the multiple regression analysis, level of the discomfort and dissatisfaction increased in case of more number of the prosthesis ($\beta$=0.864), however decreased in case of more frequent teeth brushing ($\beta$=0.737), more frequent periodic check ($\beta$=-0.737), longer duration from the implantation ($\beta$=-0.090). It is very important for the implant patients to be recognized that the lack of care may shorten the life-span of the implant prosthesis. Therefore, efforts of the continuous oral hygiene care such as, periodic recall check, scaling, teeth brushing, the correct using of additional oral hygiene product, and education would be more emphasized.
